Are the field lines for the parallel electrodes parallel everywhere?
For parallel electrodes, the field lines are all parallel to each other, since each electrode acts as an equipotential surface, meaning it has the same potential throughout its entire surface, except at the ends, where the field lines are no longer parallel to the other field lines. Hope this helps!
Why can't parallel lines intersect?
In Euclidian geometry, which is the geometry of a plane surface, parallel lines do not intersect because that is the definition of parallel lines. But note that there are other geometrical systems in which parallel lines do intersect, for example if they are drawn on the surface of a sphere. Definition of parallel lines: Lines that always stay the same distance apart and never meet.
Why the distance between two parallels is always equal except at the poles?
On a flat surface, in plane geometry, two parallel lines never meet; they are perfectly aligned with each other, so that they neither approach nor diverge from each other, at any distance. Parallel lines can meet at the poles, but not in plane geometry; this happens in spherical geometry. If the lines are on a sphere, such as, for example, the lines of longitude that are used (in conjunction with lines of latitude) to specify locations on the planet Earth, parallel lines meet at the poles. On a large scale, these parallel lines look completely different from those of plane geometry, but on a small scale, these huge circles will look much like line segments of plane geometry. Over short distances, the spherical surface of the Earth appears to be flat.
Which lines run horzonally parallel to each other?
parallel lines.....
Why are latitude lines called parallel lines?
All lines of latitude are parallel to the Equator, so they are sometimes also referred to as parallels. =) Because just like parallel lines on a flat surface, any two of them are always the same distance apart and never cross each other.
Can perpendicular lines also be parallel lines?
Perpendicular lines can not be parallel to each other but they can be to other lines.
Skew lines and parallel lines exactly the same?
Skew lines are not parallel. Parallel lines are across from each other in some way and are exactly parallel.
If two lines are parallel to a third line then the two lines are parallel?
They are parallel to each other.
Why are latitude lines often called parallel lines?
All lines of latitude are parallel to the Equator, so they are sometimes also referred to as parallels. =) Because just like parallel lines on a flat surface, any two of them are always the same distance apart and never cross each other.
Is a trapezoid a paralleleogram?
No. It has one pair of parallel lines, but the other lines are not parallel.
Why are longitude lines not parallel?
Longitude lines are not parallel because they converge at the poles. They are farthest apart at the equator and gradually come together as they approach the poles, eventually meeting at the North and South Poles. This convergence is due to the Earth's spherical shape.
What is Transitive property of parallel lines?
If two lines are parallel to the same line, then they are parallel to each other.
